Questions
What parts does the CPUBR use?
3 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the CPUBR KiCad files?
From the sjsoftware/centurion-cpu6 repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad/CPU5/SRAM_Breakout/CPUBR.kicad_pcb and its schematic kicad/CPU5/CPU5A/CPU5PA/CPU5PA.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the CPUBR design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
